The National Health Commission reported on October 10 that on the 9th, 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps reported 434 new confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia, including 373 local cases.
At present, the epidemic situation across the country still shows the characteristics of "multiple points and wide areas". There are still a number of medium and high risk areas in China, and the task of prevention and control is arduous.
The more this is the case, the more we must deeply realize that "dynamic clearing" is sustainable and must be adhered to, and continue to do a good job in epidemic prevention and control in a scientific and precise manner.
The epidemic is a big test.
Only when the epidemic can be prevented can the economy be stabilized, people's lives can be peaceful, and economic and social development can be stable and healthy.
We must be soberly aware that my country is a large country with a population of more than 1.4 billion, coupled with unbalanced regional development and insufficient medical resources, relaxation of prevention and control will inevitably increase the risk of infection among susceptible groups. Once a large-scale rebound occurs, the epidemic will spread. It is bound to have a serious impact on economic and social development, and the final price will be higher and the loss will be greater.
Adhering to dynamic clearing has better balanced the relationship between epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, allowing us to achieve the greatest prevention and control effect at the least cost, and minimize the impact of the epidemic on economic and social development.
From a practical point of view, it is precisely because we insist on dynamic clearing that we can ensure extremely low morbidity, mortality and hospitalization rates, as well as the smooth operation of society and economy.
If we calculate the general ledger, our epidemic prevention measures are the most economical and effective.
Practice has fully proved that my country's epidemic prevention and control has a good cost-benefit ratio. Dynamic clearing is the anti-epidemic strategy with the lowest comprehensive social cost, and it is the best choice for my country to control the epidemic in a timely manner at this stage.
To measure whether a virus is serious, multiplying the transmission rate and the disease-causing rate is an important indicator.
The transmissibility of Omicron is much greater than that of influenza and previous new coronavirus strains, and the immune evasion ability of some Omicron variant subclades has been significantly enhanced, which still poses a greater threat to the elderly and people with underlying diseases.
my country has a population of 267 million aged 60 and above, and there are a large number of elderly people. If you choose to "lie down", the spread of the epidemic will inevitably cause more serious losses to people's lives and properties, and the public health risks it brings are incalculable.
Adhering to the dynamic clearing is the best practice of the concept of people first and life first, and it is also the best choice to consolidate my country's hard-won prevention and control achievements.
It should be noted that dynamic clearing is not the pursuit of completely zero infection, but to find and eliminate them together, not only to prevent the new coronavirus from spreading in the epidemic, but also to prevent the spread of the virus to other areas.
This means that, on the one hand, we cannot relax the prevention and control measures and engage in "one size fits all".
To insist on dynamic clearing, we must continuously improve the level of scientific prevention and control and precise prevention and control.
In the process of epidemic prevention and control, some places optimize the layout of nucleic acid sampling points and set up electronic maps to facilitate the public to inquire and sample nearby; some places scientifically delineate medium and high-risk areas and control risk groups based on the results of epidemiological investigations; Establish a special class working mechanism for the "1+N" platform for people's demands to solve problems and solve problems, and respond to and solve people's demands as soon as possible... The practice in various places enlightens us to improve the scientific and accurate prevention and control of the epidemic. will be more effective.
Fighting against the epidemic is a struggle of material and spirit; it is a contest of strength and will.
At present, the global epidemic situation is still ups and downs, and China's foreign defense import pressure is increasing.
Unswervingly adhere to the general strategy of "foreign import, internal rebound" and the general policy of "dynamic clearing", constantly optimize prevention and control policies and measures according to the time and place, and efficiently coordinate epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development. The basic requirements of scientific spirit and scientific attitude are also an inevitable choice to follow scientific laws and protect the fundamental interests of the people.
